Vetiver for Land Restoration

Friday, January 8, 2016

The second year of a new
project: ”Vetiver and agroforestry for poverty reduction and natural resource
protection in the Dabie mountains of China”, supported by Germany, continues to
promote VS technology in this very poor part of China.

Mr. Yong Lu, associate
professorfrom School of Economics and Management, Nanjing University of
Information Science and Technology, has redesigned our website
http://www.vetiver.org.cn/ When opened by Google Chrome browser it can be
nicely translated to English

A new book “Vetiver System
Research, Application and Extension”, edited by Xia Hanping and Liyu Xu will
introduce new VS development since 2008 in China and in the world. This will
follow a book titled “Vetiver System: Theory and Practice” published in 2008.

We will establish a new
network: Southwest China Vetiver Network based onKunming to promote VS development in a region
covered by many mountains.
